Whether that king Henrie was greatlie incouraged by this good lucke in the beginning, or that he trusted through the great multitude of his people, which he had there with him, to haue the vpper hand of his enimies, true it is that he coueted sore to giue them battell; and although he might haue wearied the prince, and constreined him for want of vittels to haue returned, or to haue fought with him at some great aduantage, if he had deferred the battell, as the marshall of France Dan|drehen gaue counsell, yet he would néeds fight in all the hast, and therefore did thus approch his enimies.

Compare 1577 edition: 1 The prince perceiuing that his aduersarie came forward to incounter him, dispatched the herauld with an answer to the letter which he had of him re|ceiued, conteining in effect, that for great considera|tions, he had taken vpon him to aid the rightfull K. of Spaine, chased out of his realm by violent wrong, and that if it might be, he would gladlie make an a|greement betwixt them; conditionallie, that king Henrie of necessitie must then forsake the admini|stration, and all the title of the kingdome of Spaine, which by no rightfull meane he could inioy, and there|fore if he refused thus to doo, he was for his part resol|ued how to procéed. The herauld departed with this answer, and came therewith vnto king Henrie, and deliuered it vnto him, as then lodged with his puis|sant armie at Nauarre, so that then both parties pre|pared themselues to battell.
